I'm also currently the President of the South West Artist Blacksmith ABANA affiliate; but am ditching that in December so I can go to the Estrella wars with my forge again!

Well lets see, 5-10 minutes of work with a wire wheel in a drill resulting in possibly doubling the price. Shoot you must be *RICH* if getting paid over $200 an hour is not worth your time! Cleaned up that anvil is in pretty good shape and so will sell as a good working Fisher price. With a question on if it has a crack right where cracks are more common it drops down to a fair to poor condition anvil. Thomas

No problem, while there are issues any time you travel I go to a small Mexican town called Palomas. I park on the american side of the border and walk the 2.5 blocks to the dental clinic I use---straight down the main street and in sight of the Border Guards at all time. I also go at 9am when most of the "exciting" people are still sleeping. So far I have not felt anymore at risk than if I were to go to certain neighborhoods in Albuquerque; where I used to have my dental work done till I could no longer afford it---I've had root canals go bad both in the US and Mexico, (diabetes doesn't help), so for the same thing---extracting the tooth I paid 1200 dollars in US and 50 in Mexico---except the Mexican clinic was much cleaner! Thanks for the warning! Thomas

Mr. Powers it's not really my business, but I just got a travel warning from State Dept. yesterday for parts of Mexico. I'm not sure where you're going, but I'd hate to see anything happen to ya. There's been increased activity by the drug cartels in the border towns like Nogales, and Tijuana. Not trying to be nosy. Regards, John Sappington
